Did you get a chance to sit down with any Cocooners on this at
ApacheCon?  I think I've got a better handle on Unico's
recommendations at this point myself.  I think we can probably get
this done.  Let me know what you figured out...

I'll be out of town with sporadic online access for the next two
weeks, if no one has had a chance, I can look at the mounting then.  
I didn't even think about the i18n needing certain information in
order to do all location resolution down there -- I'll be interested
in hearing about that and the Views/Templates/whatever discussion when
I get back...

Cocoon's object model is passed to all Matchers and Selectors exactly as
in the sitemap. That is why one can use almost any Matcher/Selector that
can be used in the sitemap including the HeaderMatcher/Selector.

No I'm afraid I didn't (I doubt anyone else did either). Even worse, I 
have a new requirement for the locationmap. We need to be able to get at 
the request object in the matchers (specifically the lang header for i18n).

I'll be back online properly in a few days and will be ready to bounce 
ideas around then.
